The Riffelspitzen are two neighbouring peaks in the Wetterstein range in Bavaria. The Southern Riffelspitze () is 2,263 m high; the Northern Riffelspitze (Nördliche Riffelspitze) attains 2,242 m.
== Situation == The Riffelspitzen rise from the ridge of the Waxensteinkamm in the northern Wetterstein Mountains. To the north is the lake of Eibsee, to the south runs the Höllental. The next mountain to the southwest is the Riffeltorkopf (2,230 m), which is separated from by the knife-edge of the 2,163 m high Riffelscharte. To the northeast the ridge continues to the 2,264 m high Schönangerspitze.
